It's seriously just getting embarrassing for him. How does someone that size not feel even the slightest bit sheepish about flopping this much?

F'n Harden not getting the ball Kawhi on that last possession could have caused OT.

HCA to Clips. Expect the role players to be better in L.A.

Cardiac Clips at it again. What an insane performance by the Terminator. He needs to take this series over.

Hated that possession by Harden. Glad it was Christian Braun taking that shot instead of Murray.

Incredible game by Kawhi. What else can you say? He actually did look like 2019 Raptors Kawhi tonight, just completely unstoppable.

I really hope the glimpses Norm showed down the stretch are a sign that he's getting it back together, because we still need him. The "addition by subtraction" is very real - if we still had PG and he started the series as poorly as Norm did, he'd be toast mentally for the rest of the series and there'd be no hope at all. I actually still have hope for Norm.

It was pure chaos. Lou calling timeout when we had the ball and Jokic was on the ground was a mistake too. We could have just gotten the ball inside to Zubac

I don't think i can handle going up 3-1 and losing game 5. Too much PTSD with 3-1 leads in playoffs

heart attack Clippers. Kawhi s shooting is the reason we won. Zu was solid and Dunn was a beast on defense/hustle.

Disagree. The timeout allowed Lue to draw up the play for Kawhi to hit his final shot. The offense was stagnant and Lue felt we needed a reset to get the ball to Kawhi.

Give Lue credit. His rotation schedule ended up forcing Jokic to play the entire 2nd half. He sat Kawhi and Zu at the same time in the 3rd (5:28 left). Simmons came in and held his own.

Clips had lead at end of 3rd and Adelman could afford to sit Jokic at the start of the 4th. Jokic didn't have a made FG over the last 9 minutes.
